Okay. This is hard to do but here it is.
I need help.
I lost my job in the #eatonfire. It will be a few weeks before I see any financial assistance. I will be short on rent money for the first time in 20 years.
I am hoping you all have the grace, kindness and space to send whatever you can.

Thanks in advance for anything.
